Playmate Edition Pink? Is this real?

The paint code was "999". My in-laws bought one brand new and sold it a few years later. Unfortunately none of the pictures they have of it were color....

I also saw one here in town a couple of years ago that had been repainted, but had the paint code and was interesting in that it was a slant/three speed stick car. I would have bought it had I been in the market, but they aren't tremendously valuable.
